Where does iCloud look for photos on my android phone?

I can't seem to find a good or direct answer to this question. Every time I plug in my android phone with USB storage enabled, iCloud for Preview opens with an additional Import window. It can't seem to find my pictures on my phone. So what folder is it looking for so I can get that fixed? It is very frustrating, especially since no one seems to know the answer, so please help!
Thanks in advance for anyone who can help.

Hi Carolyn and thanks for your reply. I know that iCloud is only for i-devices, but I guess I didn't explain my problem correctly.
When I plug my rooted android phone with pictures on it into my MacBook Pro laptop, iCloud automatically opens and wants to import the pictures but displays no results (no pictures found).
When my roommate plugs his unrooted android phone into the laptop, iCloud again launches and opens the Import window and finds the pictures on his phone and displays them, ready to import them.
I don't see why his works and mine won't. Frustrated here. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Where does iCloud store my photos on my PC?

If iCloud is a replacement for me connecting my iPhone4S to my iTunes for backup and downloading my pictures on my PC. Then where are the photos that I backup to iCloud with my photostream on in the settings of my iPhone4S? When I go to iCloud.com, there is no Icon to see the photos that are supposedly backed up. This is a waste of time for me, and the money I spent to get more storage if I have to connect my iPhone4S to my PC in order to backup my photos, and to see my photos on my PC.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Do you have the iCloud control Panel ver. 1.1 installed?
Your photo's should be in
C:\Users\Apple\Pictures\Photo Stream\My Photo Stream
You can change this location by visiting Photo Stream Options in the iCloud Control Panel for Windows.

Where do I look for all my photos?

When I enter TM, if I click on Pictures under Places the window that opens shows iPhoto Library under an icon with a sunset picture that resembles the iPhoto symbol in the dock. When I click on that, a window opens that gives information about the latest modification date. Where do I look for the actual photos?

I have had a similar problem for some time. All my pictures show up under now, but if I scroll back using the time bars on the side, all the pages are blank with a text that says "loading photos", but nothing ever shows up no matter how long I wait. I access time machine both ways and I get the same result.
That doesn't sound good. Where are your backups (external disk, Time capsule, etc.)? How big is the +iPhoto Library+ on your internal HD?
You might try doing a +*Repair Disk+* (not permissions) on your TM drive/partition via Disk Utility (in your Applications/Utilities folder).
If that doesn't help, take a look at your logs for the time you were trying to see the photos. Use the Console app (same place) to see if there are any messages indicating a problem.
When it starts, click +Show Log List+ in the toolbar, then navigate in the sidebar that opens up to your system.log and select it. Navigate to the time that you noted above, then see what follows that might indicate some sort of *error, failure, throttling respawn, termination, exit,* etc. (many of the messages there are info for developers, etc.). If in doubt, copy and post (a reasonable amount of) the log here.

I'm looking for photo editing software

I am looking for photo editing software that is fairly easy to learn and I also want the feature of adding a splash of color to a black & white photo. I've seen there is Photoshope Elements and there is Lightroom. What is recommended?

For editing an Image, as you describe, Photoshop Elements would be my choice.
There is also a very helpful, and active Ps Elements Forum, where you will find easy instructions on doing what you describe, plus much more. Should you go with Ps Elements, that forum is: http://forums.adobe.com/community/photoshop_elements
In general, if you have a Grayscale Image (B/W), just change the Color Mode to RGB, create a New Layer, and paint in the color that you want. However, since I do not use Ps Elements, there might be some extra things, that will help you get the desired results, and that Ps Elements Forum will be great at helping you.
Good luck,
Hunt

TS4036 where does icloud store my mac osx recovery key?

where does icloud store my mac osx recovery key for file vault?

Note that you have to have specifically chosen to store the key with Apple at the time you created the FileVault encryption, and chosen security questions so that you can identify yourself when you come to retrieve it. If you did not store it with Apple in this way and do not have a record of it elsewhere then you cannot proceed. All this has nothing to do with iCloud and the process is not automatic.

Where does Lightroom keep my photos?

I always import my photos from my CF card into my USB external hard drive. When I view my hard drive, Finder shows all my photos and I always thought that's where my pictures were.
Then, I unplugged my laptop, took it to another location, and run Lightroom on battery. Wait a minute, all the photos I thought were on the USB external hard drive which is now disconnected showed up and play perfectly in slide show.
I went Finder through every file in the Macintosh HD, I can't see a single photo, yet Lightroom is definitely keeping a copy of it somewhere in the Mac HD.
My questions are:
(1) Where does Lightroom hide these photos?
(2) How does this impact my Macintosh HD storage capacity?
(3) How can I remove these photos from the Macintosh HD so that if I lost my Macbook Pro, the thief cannot steal my photos.
Please help.
Thank you all in advance.
Eddie

What you are seeing are the previews that Lr generates for every image that gets imported.
(1) These previews are not hidden but are in the same directory as the Lr database. Read more here:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=333660
(2) Lr previews -- depending on what size you generate and the number of images imported -- can consume a lot of space. But disk is cheap.
(3) Paranoia is no reason to delete the previews. Don't lose your laptop!

Where does PSE10 save edited photos?

Where does PSE10 save edited photos? When I use PSE File / Open Recently Edited file, it displays 10 files. How do I access are all the other ones I have saved? I have tried using iMAC Finder with no luck.

edited photos are saved in the modified folder in the iPhoto library
However - that is not the place to access the modified photo - you never need to go directly into the iPhoto library is it is advisable not to - there are no user serviceable parts in it

Where does mail store downloaded photos

Where does mail store downloaded photos?

If I understood you... you can export your entire iPhoto library to an external Hard Drive? I could only see import option...
You're welcome. Yes, that is correct. In iPhoto, File > Export... > Select external drive.
You said your drive has to be specially formatted - is that for if you want to export your photos to that drive? Or do you mean if you wanted the iPhoto library to be located primarily on the hard drive?
I meant the latter > specifically, your external drive would need to be formatted in this manner if you wanted your primary iPhoto library to reside on an external drive and function correctly. This format is the format of your MBP's internal drive.
Format the drive as FAT32 using disk utility to make the drive universally compatible between OSX/windows. Place the JPEG images on the drive. Transfer between machines with no problem.

Connect your phone to iTunes, then right-click on the name of your phone on the left sidebar and select Reset Warnings. Then sync again and you should get a warning listing the problem files.

Where to start looking for _JVM_SupportsCX8@0 error

I compiled a Java applet with jdk1.1.8 that html runs fine on Explorer 6.0.2800...

You might need to use the Object & Embed tags rather than the Applet tag in your HTML. IE allows you use sun's JVM for the Applet tag, but I don't know about Netscape. Look for HTMLConverter to convert HTML files that support both tags.

How do EDGE charges work/where do I look for itemized billing GoPhone Pic

How do EDGE charges work/where do I look for itemized billing. I have the GoPhone Pick Your Plan. The AT&T _phone call_ charges are clearly itemized on line at AT&T.
Can I view the charges for the Media Net Unlimited feature package? I have connected to WiFi at the local coffee shop. I have connected briefly to a local TV weather page while using EDGE. I fear the twenty or thirty dollar charges I have read about if I do any serious use of Safari while using EDGE.
I have explored this on the following:
http://www.lindenlan.net/2007/08/15/prepaid-vs-contract-att-gophone-or-nation-pl an/
and
http://www.tuaw.com/2007/09/24/prepaid-data-packages-and-the-iphone/
and both suggest I will be thoroughly reamed unless I am on a WiFi hot spot.
Every time I read the word "Unlimited" in my unlimited Media Net package there is the dreaded double asterisk "**" and the warning "additional per minute charges apply.
I don't see a charge for my maiden foray onto the internet using EDGE to view the weather page at KKTV so where is it. Surly I cannot use EDGE without charges on this turkey plan. Or can I ?

How exciting ! You have gone way beyond the call of duty for me. I appreciate it; thanks. I am so pleased with the iPhone but did not want to spend my life in coffee shops just to use it. Also I need the map function at work to help my customers and we have no WiFi there yet. But looks like I am ok at work on EDGE.
Every other day I was oscillating between being extremely pleased with my purchase and then chastising myself for spending all the money on the service that I was sure would be inadequate. I don't call much and considering how fast things are changing I don't want to be locked into a two year contract though I understand Apple is locked into five years exclusively with AT&T.
I hope good things come your way !
